I cannot say enough about my experience with Sage Catering and Trisha especially. We booked her early on in our wedding planning process and were beginning to be discouraged with the lack of professionalism in wedding vendors. I'm not joking when I say if it weren't for Sage, we would have eloped. We scheduled a (free!) delicious tasting with ease, where we got to choose and sample full sizes of all the appetizers and entrees. Throughout the next year, Trisha responded to my pages of emailed questions with speed and conciseness. There was literally no stone that was left unturned, no hidden costs or last minute details. I had a crazy work schedule and had to keep rescheduling appointments, but she handled this with amazing professionalism and flexibility. When I say that they went above and beyond, this company truly did. They fixed our disastrous wedding signs, waded through the mess of notes and decorations to set up, arranged for our awesome duel-bar situation, helped us set down everything with efficiency, and best of all - they literally assigned staff to the us, bride and groom, to make sure that we ate and drank. Also, think about this - when was the last time you heard a compliment about wedding food? Everyone comments on the venue and the drinks and the fun but I've never heard anyone compliment the food in over 20 weddings I've attended. Almost all of our guests have commented on the food. Our tasting was delicious and the scale-up was no exception. I am literally shouting from the rooftops for anyone in the Philly/DE region to hear - you absolutely need to book Sage catering for every event going forward. Seriously.

Simply Awesome!

SAGE catered my December 2018 wedding at Cairnwood Estate and I was so glad that we chose them! To set the context – this was a second wedding for both my husband and I who are in our mid-50’s. Rather than a traditional reception, we wanted an evening that felt more like a formal dinner party-including a fully custom French inspired menu. Within 5 minutes of talking with Greg and Dana, I knew they had the skills, attitude, and desire to execute on our vision. Dana was a joy to work with. Besides being a really neat lady, she is very competed and focused. While it took several iterations to get the menu finalized, Dana and Greg were very willing to work with me as we poured over the details of each dish to ensure the entire menu would work perfectly. AND IT DID!!! Our guests raved about the food -- three weeks later and they are still raving about the food! Dana ensured the evening flowed according to plan (relaxed cadence yet ensured dinner did not drag on) while the executive chefs & their teams executed on a series of complicated appetizers and entrees. Not to be overlooked was the wait-staff. They professionally and unobtrusively served our guests and were just very pleasant all the way around. Simply put, SAGE assembled a highly professional and competent team and exceed my very high expectations. Without question, I would highly recommend SAGE for any of your catering needs. They will not disappoint.

Top notch service and quality!

Top notch from day one! We were married 2 weeks ago and right after the first email exchange and tasting, we knew we wanted to go with Sage for our wedding. We worked with Trisha and I cannot say enough amazing things about her. She guided us through all the decisions (including ones we didn't even know we had to make!) and made the process so smooth. The food was absolutely delicious. It isn't your typical, manufactured, mass quantity wedding food. The combinations and flavors and presentations were perfect. Everyone was raving about how this wedding was one where people actually will remember the food! They come with an army of people to set up everything; we were blown away by all the support to make their events happen. If you want quality food, service and an event that people will remember, Sage (and Trisha!) will not disappoint!
